The influence of emotion on fairness-related decision making

"The Dual-process System claims that there are dual subsystems in
fairness-related decision making: one is automatic, with an immediate
response and an emotional system with no cognitive effort, whereas the
other is controlled and comparatively slow, with a rational system of
cognitive effort. The emotional system represents the intuitive
response; however, after learning and calculation, the rational system
requires an adaptive response to different situations by regulating the
emotional system (Loewenstein and O’Donoghue, 2004; Sanfey and Chang, 2008; Feng et al., 2015).
Fairness-related decision making is influenced by systematically and
effectively regulating responders’ fairness perceptions via rational
cognitive control (Rilling and Sanfey, 2011).
For example, the model suggests that all types of emotional regulation
strategies can change fairness-related decision making through the
interaction of cognition and emotion."
